Not far from where I live is
Lumley Castle, where they do an Elizabethan Banquet.
Quote:
The year is 1591 and you are invited to attend the banquet feast of Sir Jon Lumley. Before the banquet starts the doors to the dungeons and guardroom are thrown open where wine, ale and mead can be purchased. You will be greeted with a friendly smile but take heed to be well behaved or his Lordship's executioner will deal with you!

The best part is that there's no cutlery.
My relatives from London always insist we go when they are visiting us.
